Assume that the assembly line runs 40 hours per week.
Draw out the assignment of tasks to workstations in a diagram with labels. There may be a couple possible layouts so choose the one with the highest potential output
(Hint: you will need this to see the bottleneck workcenter, which determines the actual cycle time).
What is the efficiency of this assembly line?
